Thanks for reading, and commenting, Bill. I definitely could have made the 
piece longer, but I feel a short story is best when it leaves you thinking. 
I was going for the story within a story, along the lines of a repressed 
childhood memory, which was 'unearthed' when Dean sees his son by the well. 
I hoped this tied into the theme of archaeology, the unearthing of memory, 
along with the tin soldier, the marble, and of course, the arrow heads. But, 
I'm really not a literary writer, no matter how hard I try to be. Again, 
thanks for taking the time to read and comment.
